it’s good to cry


We think of crying as weakness
yet we ourselves are weak
bits of dust and God’s breath
given life by God

it’s good to cry
especially in compassion
offering our love to our neighbors
offering them friendship

We think of crying as weakness
yet the tears are what binds us
humble before our Maker
and loving toward our neighbors.
